Album: Sunset Boulevard

Overture I Guess It Was 5 A.M.

Joe:
I guess it was five A.M. A homicide had been reported
From one of those crazy mansions up on sunset
Tomorrow every front page is going to lead with this story
You see an old time movie star is involved,
Maybe the biggest star of all
But before you read about it, before it gets distorted
By those Hollywood piranhas, if you wanna know the real facts
You've come to the right party
Joe:
Let me take you back six months,
I was at the bottom of the barrel
I'd had a contract down at Fox, but I'd fallen foul of Darryl
Now I had a date at Paramount,
Along with about a thousand other writers
If it didn't come up roses, I'd be covering funerals
Back in Dayton, Ohio,
I'd hidden my car three blocks away
Turned out to be a smart move.
